I used to think education was the most important thing in my life. Recently my attitude has begun to change, although I still hold that it is essential for everyone in the world today. As a top junior student in my college, I was asked to make a speech on how to learn English well. Standing in front of the audience facing so many freshmen, I was trembling. I didnt remember any word that I had prepared. I ran out of the conference room without finishing my speech, leaving everyone puzzled. I cried that night in my room, feeling that I was a loser. Studying takes so much of my time that I feel unable to really develop myself. I am just storing knowledge; yet fail to communicate with others. I have received many awards in school, but they dont necessarily reflect anything about me. I dont know how to socialize. When I leave school I fear I will be o no use to society. I realize that everyone has her or his own way of living. I want to change my lifestyle. Of course I will keep studying. Yet I plan to look for a part time job, which might turn out to be a good chance to get to know society. I still believe that working my hardest does make me happy. I will still stay on in college, but I will not allow it to shelter me from the real world. From the passage, we know that the author( ).(A) does not think education is the most important thing in her life any more. (B) realizes that it is more important to really develop oneself than just to store knowledge (C) thinks that communication with other people is more important than education (D) comes to learn how important it is to make a public speech By saying that she is “a top junior student” in her college, the author means that she is( ).(A) a student in her third year in a college (B) a very young college student (C) younger than most students in college (D) shorter than others in college The author thinks the awards she has received ( ).(A) show that she is a top student (B) show that how much time she has spent in learning (C) mean she only knows how to learn, but not how to socialize (D) dont necessarily reflect her real self The author fears that she will be of no use to society, mainly because( ).(A) she feels she is a loser (B) she doesnt know how to communicate with others (C) studying takes too much of her time (D) she is unable to develop herself Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage, when the author says that she wants to find a part time job?(A) The job might enable her to get know society. (B) She wants to change her lifestyle. (C) Working part time while studying will make her happy.

They dont think they are the happiest of the people around them. They would point out that one of their neighbors is happier than any one of them. “Doctor Frank has a career himself. His wife is the most beautiful and well-educated lady in the community. No, I dont think I am happier than Doctor Frank. At least my career is not as successful as his.” Most of us compare ourselves with anyone we think is happiera relative, a close friend or, often, someone we even hardly know. I once met a young man who struck me as particularly successful and happy. He spoke of his love for his beautiful wife and their daughters, and of his joy at being a TV talk-show host. I remember thinking he was one of the lucky few for whom everything goes effortlessly right. Once we talked about the Internet, he is grateful for its existence. He told me, because he could look up information on diabetes(糖尿病) the terrible disease that made his wife suffer and could possibly passed down to his lovely children. When I heard this, I felt like a fool for taking it for granted that nothing unhappy excited in his life. This made me think a lot and I soon drew one of the most significant conclusions about happiness; there is little relation between the situation of peoples lives and how happy they are. We all know people who are richer and have an easier life than others, yet they are essentially unhappy. And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Unhappiness is like looking at something and fixing on even the smallest fault. As a bald man told me, “Whenever I enter a room, all I see is hair.” It is hard for us to give up the image of “being perfect”. As nothing is perfect, anyone can be unhappy. It takes no courage or effort to be unhappy. True happiness lies in struggling to be happy. 16. According to the author, most people would _ they are the happiest in the world. According to the author, most people would ( )they are the happiest in the world.(A) doubt whether (B) like to think that (C) think about whether (D) not think that The author thinks that people quite often compare themselves with( ).(A) a close friend (B) anyone we think is happier (C) a relative (D) someone we even hardly know What is not true about the young man the author once met with?(A) He is a TV talk-show host (B) Everything goes effortlessly right for him (C) He loves his wife and their daughters
